That's unfortunately not the case. It's clear much of the US news media and corporate and political establishment is entirely supportive of Israel at all costs. If the Biden Admin cuts Israel off completely, there would be an immediate, coordinated campaign waged by many of these organizations to take down the Harris campaign and support Trump, which would be incredibly potent.

A better move would be to win this election first and then make policy change. We cannot have Trump in the Whitehouse

Because then they'd get death threats and lose their jobs. Their jobs are more important than the country, apparently

Harris's weakness with non-college educated white men is well studied and discussed in the polling universe. She does way better than Biden though with young people, women, and all non-white groups

Like I said, whether you should go to HR will depend a lot on your company culture. In all the jobs I've worked, I've had HR departments that would've taken your complaint seriously and not allowed you to be retaliated against in that way. Btw, what you're describing does sound like retaliation, which is totally a lawsuit you could pursue

I'm seeing this story on every news outlet in Chicago

OP, I'd urge you to reconsider framing this whole thing as an "extrovert vs introvert" battle. Your boss is demonstrating poor boundaries and disrespectful and inappropriate behavior, and that has nothing to do with whether she's an I or E on the Myers-Briggs.

Whether or not you go to HR depends a lot on your company culture. Either way, you need to be documenting specific comments and specific behaviors that are inappropriate first. Every time she asks you an uncomfortable question, especially if it relates to sex, write down what she asked, how you responded (that you declined to answer and asked her to stop asking personal questions), who else was present, and the date/time. Keep this in a personal account, not company. Do NOT go to HR without documentation.

We don't know how big your company is, but odds are if she's a middle manager she's got people above her already who know she's a gossip and hate that. If you have any relationship at all with her supervisor, it's generally viewed as following the chain of command if you bring concerns like this directly to them, as well.

"I'm an introvert and you're an extrovert" is frankly an awful way to frame this dynamic. Besides being a binary descriptor that has little basis in reality, OP's boss acting way out of line has nothing to do with their being an extrovert

To be clear, if you're at all concerned about maintaining a food budget, even if it's $500/week the billionaire class is still your enemy.

I can see how of course a teacher should be able to bring their child along with the group, because childcare is really difficult for a lot of people, but the quotes are damning.

Lightyear just wasn't a very good movie. It's easier for execs to blame including a gay character than to admit the failure of multiple people at high levels in making a bad movie. My son was crazy for Buzz Lightyear in Toy Story and we wanted to like Lightyear, but the story just made no sense.

I'm reminded of Eraserhead

 

"Gwen" means "white" in a variety of Celtic languages

 

"City" in common. Incredible performance of an incredible song.

 

Like the 13th Floor Elevators, Grupo Fantasma is from Austin, TX. Also, they're covering a song from over 15 years prior

 
 

From care to careless

 

Shake, baby, shake, sha-shake, sha-shake, work it, work it

 

Also a drum corps

 

Born or machine, pick your poison

 

El Paso is a ballad about the American Frontier, with incredible vocal harmonies
